Added a few things and didn't want to do a new announcement.
Valve sub section has been added to Misc games.
Madden13 has been added as well.
Minecraft Xbox sub section has been added to MC section
Wii discussion opened for talk about WiiU
Books and suggested reading sub section added to GD
2 new V Bookies have been added MLB & Fusaah also Mudkip is now vBookie supervisor.
SU and Kaveman retired from Vbookie
Been working on suggestions section, we are down to about 10 now.

Thats it for now

As stated we will try and keep you updated on things here, so here is this weeks.

We upgraded the server this week and it caused an issue for the site because the CPU we wanted was not in Stock, We were down for 2 days doing a back up so we could run on our old CPU.

The new server has many benefits, including a lot of extra ram, disc space, and CPU cycles.
This will enable us to offer some added features for you all, which we are working on now.
As far a general site speed improvements, those will happen when the new CPU we ordered comes in.
Till then we may have similar lag issues we've had in the past, But it will be much better soon and there will not be any down time when it comes in and is hooked up.

We had a big list internally of things to fix this month.

We fixed Forum Help section , where the perms were all screwed up and many could not post or view. You guys are a major help in that section, answering peoples questions, as well as new members not being able to even ask for help.

CLM has taken over as Vbookie supervisor and has added Hou as a US Vbookie.
There will be many more events posted now, especially as we get into NFL season and the MLB playoffs :y:

We had http bug that was an issue with pages loading, that has been repaired.

The DOB issue for horny Elite members has been fixed, and stop PM'ing me that you were born in 1907 Winky Winky

Xploder license keys bugs have been repaired and working fine now.

The SB detach glitch has been removed, we had too many banned members coming into the SB with no posts to create problems ( gonna miss some of you guys :p )


Have a couple more things to add tonight to this one, but wanted to get this out and keep you all updated.

Thanks for being a member of NGU and contributing to a unique gaming site on the WWW :wub:

The bold issue is being worked on by us, Elite , former staff and minimum requirements to get ex staff bar and staff bold...

I don't think Elite should be able to pick colors at all, but that's just me. If they do have the colors, then I think they shouldn't be bold. It does create confusion. I've seen multiple times where an Elite member was posting screen snaps of a new member thinking they were staff or an admin. Staff having bold makes their names stand out more so they are more easily found and contacted. When you go into the shoutbox and there's 20 people in there with 7 different colors and they are all bold, staff do not stand out unless you've been here for a while and know the staff colors.


I don't think you should be able to change your name, or the color of your status. If you want a name change, the admins/supermods can EASILY change your username.

I've been here a while and I'm already confused of who's who. I offer my members a name change once a year. I'm the only full admin on my board, so I have a maroon colored name and user bar. The super mods have one color, and the mods have one color.

As far as the elite's, maybe make a poll of colors and let the elite's choose. I say the purlpe'ish one like mine is the one I see the most.

Just my 2 cents.

All members can change their names for vBux in the vBPlaza. Supers can't change names on this site, and the few admins that would do it wouldn't be capable of all the requests.

I agree that Elites should vote on one color, but that won't happen. It's hard enough just to remove bold from Elites.
